Chris, did this response make sense for your situation? /charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/

The CFC explorer is a CFML app running under the CF Admin directory, and it simply invokes your CFC. If you're expecting code to have run before the CFC is invoked, it will not have run it. This is perhaps one of the reasons that there's a recommendation (best practice) against referring to variables defined outside the CFC. The argument goes that anything a CFC needs should be passed to it. Further, since the CFC explorer just looks at method names and signatures (inputs, outputs, properties), it would seem that you're using variables for those. Again, while it may work at run-time, and you may even have reasons to shrug off the recommendations, the simple fact is that since those won't be passed in by the CFC explorer, you just won't be able to explore that CFC using that tool. If anyone has more specific experience or knowledge, I'd appreciate hearing it as much as Chris. I didn't set up any test to confirm all this. Just going with my gut reaction. /charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/ -----Original Message----- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Velevitch Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 1:06 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] CFC Explorer and Application.cfm Would I expect the cfc explorer to execute the Application.cfm that exists the directory hierarchy for the cfc being explored? I can't seem to explore a cfc that contains references to variables in the application scope as I get "element is undefined in APPLICATION" errors.
